I want Sam Mitchell Back

Why did we ever fire him??? Cause Colangelo thought Jermaine O'Neal would win us a championship?

Truth is, he's been the best coach we've had in recent memory. When given some talent, he could actually light a fire under our players' *****, and publicly call out, ridicule, and yell at players for playing like crap.

What Sam Mitchell would do: Hey Bargnani, don't want to play defense? SIT YO AZZ DOWN ON THE BENCH.

What Triano and Casey would do: Hey Bargnani, don't want to play defense? I'll leave you in during crunch time so you can launch 3 point bricks and grab zero rebounds! LOL!

I want Sam Mitchell Back

Sam Mitchell is a lot like Casey. A coach that lacks Xs and Os.

“It’s about winning,” Stoudemire said. “You win, you’re going to get on national TV. Simple. In Phoenix, we won — Western Conference finals three, four years, playoffs every year. We won. If you don’t win, nobody really wants to see you.”

If my memory served me right, Sam was not an X's and O's coach. His rotation was also not that good either. Yes he is an accountability guy but he is to the extreme sometimes and players with egos will eventually tune him out.

I am not surprised that until now, nobody had the inclination to hire him as the head coach of their team.

I say...no to the Smitch.

If Carlisle is eventually available which I doubt because Cuban is so attached to that guy(obviously with the only ring that he ever got), I think he is the right guy for this team.

If I'm a gm, I do everything possible to get Sloan to coach this team.

this is just over reaction to us being 4 and whatevs alot of losses, and the jays getting gibbins back so now people are going to want mitchell back. i personally don think mitchell was that important to the division title

you know who the key to that team was jorge garbajosa, we were never able to replace what he brought after he got injured

Second is Jeff Van Gundy

Third is Sloan.

Pipe dream would be the Zen and Pop.

None of those coaches would even think of coming here unless we offered them a $50 million 5 year contract.

Carlise isn't an X and O coach either. He'll have the same stubborn rotations as Casey. Guess who taught Casey that?

hes better than Casey but he wouldnt change much ... hes not a great coach either.... we need an actual coach.. ones who knows what they are doing on bith sides of the ball AND will light a fire under players *****
